Lyrics: David Rovics. Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

Alex is a member of my record label, teenager though he is
He joined the Ever Reviled Records collective and the indie music biz
Well his parents didn't like such turns of events so they called up a couple of thugs
To send him back to Utah, lock him up and pump him full of drugs
They say he's got problems with authority, yeah, this is what they claim
And their psychiatric analysis has even got a name

Oppositional Defiant Disorder
I think I got it, too
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
He's sick and so are you

If you think George Bush is a moron and Tony Blair's a liar
If you fantasize about setting your local Wal-Mart on fire
If you don't like Tom Brokaw and you think he's full of it
And you feel that a Rush Limbaugh punching bag might be kinda fun to hit
If bombing other countries makes you feel appalled
You have got a problem and this is what it's called

Oppositional Defiant Disorder
I think I got it, too
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
He's sick and so are you

If you think school is boring and your teacher is a fool
If you don't like your congressman and you called him a corporate tool
If you were not standing to sing Save the Queen
If you turned down hamburgers and ate rice and beans
We've got a diagnosis, no matter whether you agree
Just do what the doctors tell you and thank God for psychiatry

Oppositional Defiant Disorder
I think I got it, too
Oppositional Defiant Disorder
He's sick and so are you
